inverted nipples
Breast tips withdrawn inward
Inverted nipples are nipples that retract inward rather than protruding outward.
The condition ranges from mild, where nipples can be drawn out temporarily, to severe, where they remain permanently inverted.
Some people are born with them; others develop inversion later due to breastfeeding, aging, or medical conditions.
